AbstractMitigation of pressure pulsations in the exhaust of a pulse detonation combustor is crucial for operation with a downstream turbine. For this purpose, a device termed the shock divider is designed and investigated. The intention of the divider is to split the leading shock wave into two weaker waves that propagate along separated ducts with different cross sections, allowing the shock waves to travel with different velocities along different paths. The separated shock waves redistribute the energy of the incident shock wave. The shock dynamics inside the divider are investigated using numerical simulations. A second-order dimensional split finite volume MUSCL-scheme is used to solve the compressible Euler equations. Furthermore, low-cost simulations are performed using geometrical shock dynamics to predict the shock wave propagation inside the divider. The numerical simulations are compared to high-speed schlieren images and time-resolved total pressure recording. For the latter, a high-frequency pressure probe is placed at the divider outlet, which is shown to resolve the transient total pressure during the shock passage. Moreover, the separation of the shock waves is investigated and found to grow as the divider duct width ratio increases. The numerical and experimental results allow for a better understanding of the dynamic evolution of the flow inside the divider and inform its capability to reduce the pressure pulsations at the exhaust of the pulse detonation combustor.

Abstract In order to study the influence of different nozzle configurations on the gas–liquid two-phase pulse detonation engine (PDE) propulsion performance, the measurement system based on the tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) technology is built to measure the velocity and the temperature, while the high frequency dynamic pressure sensor is used to measure the nozzle gas pressure. Based on the momentum principle, the contribution mechanism of unsteady gas jet on thrust is obtained indirectly by TDLAS data. The results show that the impulses of PDE with non-nozzle, convergent nozzle, divergent nozzle and convergent–divergent nozzle are 1.95, 2.08, 1.85 and 2.16 N∙s within 20 ms of the exhaust period, respectively. The analysis reveals that the impulses of PDE with convergent and convergent–divergent nozzles are larger than that with non-nozzle, while the impulse of PDE with divergent nozzle is smaller than that with non-nozzle. The research results in this paper can provide reference for the design of nozzles for PDE.
